What could these symptoms be

For the last few weeks I've had on and off really painful stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, terrible piles and thinking about it I've also had lower back pain. Could I have developed a sudden allergy? I haven't changed my diet or anything and eat relatively healthily - lots of fruit and veg and unprocessed foods. I know a GP appointment is the obvious answer but I find my GP so dismissive and unconcerned whenever I go so wondered if anyone had had similar so I feel prepared should I be brushed off.

I’d look at doing a food diary, I’d look at removing some food groups as yes, you could have developed an allergy. But with you mentioning the lower back pain, how are your periods, and when was your last smear?

If you’ve had diarrhoea for a few weeks the GP should get you to do a stool sample. Could be anything really. I’d also keep a food/symptom diary.
I recently worked out I can’t do oats, which is a shame. Covid fucked up my digestive system 😞
